More modern rigging reduced this hazard considerably in 1997, but care is still necessary on this section of the cave. Here Andy Atkinson and Mike Baslington are scramling down towards the first pitch itself. <br><font size=-1>Photo © Julian Haines, 1997</font> <!-- Photo scanned on Coolscan at 1350 dpi, 1997.10 AERW --> <hr /> <!-- LINKS --> <div id="photomenu"> <ul> <li><a href="../pixss.htm#id136">Visual tour of 136</a></li> <li><b>More photos:</b> <ul> <li><a href="../pix.htm">Other tours</a> in 161</li> </ul></li> <li><a href="../136.htm#id136p1">Back to cave description</a></li> </ul> </div> </body> </html>
